During
the fall of 2011, the CISD voters approved the issuance of almost $44
million in bonds in support of the Canutillo Independent School
District's need for upgrades and construction. The Bond Referendum,
known as Decision 2011 provided funding for the construction of a PK
through fifth grade school named Congressman Silvestre & Carolina
Reyes School, and for additions and upgrades across the District.

The
passing of the Bond Issue triggered the creation of the Canutillo Bond
Accountability Committee. This committee function is to assist the CISD
Board and Superintendent by monitoring the plans, process and progress
of the bond program and related construction projects. The formation of
this committee was a pledge by the Board to stakeholders during the
DC2011 School Bond information presentations held throughout the
district.

This
committee is made up of volunteers who have a vested interest in the
success of our school district. They serve only in an advisory capacity
to the Board of Trustees.
